### A quiet, supportive space to work on your books—with business owners who get it.
You’re running a business, not just keeping a spreadsheet. And yet… the bookkeeping still matters.
If money management keeps falling to the bottom of your to-do list, join us for a weekly meetup designed to help you get it done—with community, not pressure.
This isn’t a class or a coaching session. It’s a co-working-style check-in where you can organize your finances, ask questions, and build sustainable habits around your money—alongside other business owners.
